This past weekend Friday May 13 – Tuesday May 17 Phil went on another trip.  This time with Moises Ruiz to another part of Mexico where we do some teaching – Zacapoaxtla, Huitzilan, Pazmata, and then off to Chignahuapan for a meeting with the board of the Missionary Church of Mexico.

Carolyn has been busy baking at home this last couple of weeks trying to perfect recipes for a birthday party for the daughter of the principal of our language school at the end of May.  The cake below was a recipe she used as cupcakes the first time, but she decided to make it into a cake to see if it would turn out as well.  It was really good as a cake, but the cupcakes were better.  If you’d like the recipe, there isn’t really any specific one, it was an experiment of a vanilla cake, home-made marshmallow fluff, and a new lemon butter cream icing (with real lemon juice/zest – Yellow lemons can be hard to get here)!  Ta-da!

Below are some pictures from our trip.  If you are on Facebook, you’ll recognize most of these pictures that have been posted.

The road to Pazmata was incredibly rough. This was the best part of the dirt road!
